Father, these are truly difficult times, but help us to remember that trouble don’t last always and that EVEN NOW You have promised to be our very present help! Give us the peace, patience, hope, Joy, love and STRENGTH we need for this journey…day-by-day! Teach us how to truly be content in every situation—setting our hearts desire on You, the Lover of our souls! And even when all else fails, help our trust and faith in You to prevail!

“ANOINTED”

ANOINTED

Heavenly Father, We are so grateful for another day in the land of the living. Anoint your children so that we can be most effective for your kingdom calling. Some are sick, but when the doctors fail…YOU, Oh Lord, are still faithful! Some are hurting, but YOU, Oh Lord, are the soothing salve needed to ease the pain! Some are in turmoil, but YOU, Oh Lord, can speak peace in the midst of life storms!

Father, in times like these, You are our joy, peace, strength and song…a very present help in times of trouble! 

I humbly ask that You lead, guide, provide, direct and protect us each and every day. Move in the lives of your people in a supernatural way and Meet us at the point of our most intimate need! Heal our bodies; Renew our minds; Consecrate our hearts; And Anoint us from the crown of our heads to the soul of our feet! 

Father God, allow the sweet fragrance of your presence to intoxicate those we encounter daily as we Drip Jesus everywhere our feet trod! 

Lord, We totally surrender our hearts, minds, body and soul to You! Be glorified in all we say, think and do. Thank You for trusting us with this Calling on our lives and for your unconditional love! In the mighty and matchless Name of Jesus I pray and give you all praise! Amen 🙏🏽~M. Ford

“OUR FATHER”

OUR FATHER

Our Father in Heaven—The One who sits high & look low!
May your Name be kept holy—That we recognize who you are & respond with the reverence due you!
May your Kingdom come—For we wait on tiptoes of anticipation for you to crack the sky on your return!
May your will be done on earth as it is done in heaven—Not our will, but Your will be done!
Give us today the food we need—For we want to trust and depend on You, Jehovah Jirah, just like the sparrow!
And forgive us our sins—For we have ALL sinned & fallen short of your glory!
Help us to forgive those who sin against us—Because we want you to grant us that same forgiveness in our times of need.
And don’t let us yield to temptation—For Satan is cunning in all his ways!
Rescue us from the evil one—Although we may have fallen in sin, we can still get up again!
For Yours is the Kingdom—Hallelujah!🙌🏼
And the Power—Hallelujah!🙌🏼
And the Glory Forever & Ever—Hallelujah!🙌🏼
Hallelujah! 🙌🏼
Amen!🙏🏽~M. Ford
(Matthew 6: 9-13)

“TESTIMONY OF OUR TEST”

TESTIMONY OF OUR TEST

Heavenly Father, pour out your spirit on your children who are seeking you today! Some are hurting and their hearts are heavy with grief and sadness—Embrace them with your comforting arms and grace them with your kiss of peace that surpasses all understanding. Some are feeling lonely and have no one to love or to love on them—Fill their hearts with overflowing joy from You, while your love gently surrounds and comforts them. Others are encountering difficulties, hardships, and overwhelming issues of life—Give them the heart of a Lion so that they will have Holy boldness to stand with unwavering faith during difficult and tedious times such as these.

Father, free us up in the spirit to praise and worship You—always recognizing Your faithfulness at all times and in all situations and vicissitudes of life. Gift us with spiritual 20/20 vision—living in the natural realm, but seeing things in the supernatural realm!

Help us to see the situations and circumstances we encounter as only a temporary testing of our faith—divinely designed to strengthen us for this race. Endow us with a quiet peace deep within our soul and build us up in our most holy faith so that we won’t falter and fail when trials and troubles come our way, but rather we will mount up on wings like an eagle and soar! Ever READY to give the TESTIMONY of the TEST that we’ve endured and prevailed!

It’s in the mighty and matchless Name of Jesus I pray and praise always. Amen 🙏🏽~M. Ford

“Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.” ‭‭(Jeremiah‬ ‭29:12-13‬ ‭NIV‬‬)

“He’s Sweet I Know”

He’s Sweet I Know!

Heavenly Father…Our hearts are made glad because of your radical love for us!

We stand on tiptoes of expectation as to what you will do in our lives as we submit and surrender to Your Will and not to our own ways. Whether with many or a remnant few, You will accomplish all you set out to accomplish!

Use us, Oh Lord, to accomplish even greater works for Your glory! Consecrate our hearts so that we are sensitive to your will! Regulate our minds so that we think on you more each day! Sharpen our holy vision so that we see in the spiritual realm! Fine tune our hearing so that we recognize Your voice even in the midst of chaos and confusion! And, when we get weak and tired from the journey, Oh Lord, Strengthen and Revive us again!

Have your way Lord…You are the Potter and we are the clay! We love, praise, worship and adore you always….It’s in the precious Name of Jesus I pray, Amen🙏🏽~M. Ford

“Fall Fresh On Us”

FALL FRESH ON US

Jehovah-Rohi…You are our Good Shepherd. Lead us in Your way everlasting! Order our every step so that we don’t slip and slid out of your Will! Make us sensitive to your voice and presence in our lives so that we will not follow a stranger (demonic spirits). Search our hearts🫀, and if you find anything unlike You, cast it out and make us new—Jehovah-Tsidkenu!

Jehovah Rapha, Heal those who are sick and bind up the wounded! Mend the broken hearted. Loose those bound by unholy habits. Save the lost and Strengthen the Saved. Walk with us through the valley of sickness and sorrow, and guide us to the mountaintop of Joy everlasting!

Jehovah Jirah, You indeed are more than enough! Restore that which has been taken by the enemy, and give beauty for ashes to those who seek your face! Breathe upon your children new life and let the oil of your anointing flow to empower us to do greater works for your glory!

Thank you, Abba, for hearing and answering my humble prayer! It’s in the strong and mighty Name of JESUS I pray and praise always! Amen 🙏🏽 ~M. Ford

“Are You READY?”

ARE YOU READY?

God’s Word is unfolding before our very eyes. These are chaotic and difficult times at best—Times that will try Men’s souls. Nevertheless, this time of testing has PURPOSE.

Pandemic diseases unleashed at alarming rates, while various other “natural” disasters consistently climb. Corruption and debauchery throughout out land—everyday the boundaries of sin are being pushed further and further. People are being brainwashed into accepting WRONG as RIGHT by the cultural pressure of society and subliminal messages of a crocked and perverse generation, causing the unaware to slip further and further into the abyss of sin and immorality.

But be not deceived; God is not mocked. According to His Word, there will be dangerous times of great stress and trouble; difficult days that may be hard to bear. People will be lovers of themselves (self-focused/selfish), lovers of money (greed), boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control (immoral), brutal, haters of good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of sensual pleasure rather than lovers of God—having a form of godliness (outward appearance) but denying its power (religion without relationship) for their conduct (behavior) nullifies their faith. Have nothing to do with such people and stay far away from them! They are the kind of people who worm their way into our homes and gain control over the gullible, morally weak, and spiritually immature, who are loaded down with sins and are swayed by all kinds of evil desires and impulses, always learning (listening to anybody who will teach them) but never able to come to a knowledge of THE TRUTH of God’s Word.

As for true Christians, continue in what you have learned and have become convinced of (the Truths of God’s Word), because you know those from whom you learned it (Truth Teachers), and how from infancy you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through Faith in Christ Jesus. (‭‭2 Timothy‬ ‭3:1-9, 14-15‬ paraphrased; Romans 10:9-10)

Therefore, STOP—DROP—PRAY for this World 🌎 Today!🙇🏾‍♂️🙇🏽‍♀️ God’s Word is right and true…Jesus will return in the blink of an eye—Are You Watching? Will You be READY? Now is the time to…Reflect, Re-evaluate and Repent. (2 Chronicles 7:14). Hallelujah and Amen!🙏🏽~M. Ford
